The Prophets-Not to Be Understood in Any Jewish Sense

For this reason some Jews seized me in the temple and tried to put me to death. So, having obtained help from God, I stand to this day testifying both to small and great, stating nothing but what the Prophets and Moses said was going to take place; that the Christ was to suffer, and that by reason of His resurrection from the dead He would be the first to proclaim light both to the Jewish people and to the Gentiles.” – Acts 26:21-23 (emphasis mine)

The epistle to the Galatians establishes this even further. The Epistle to the Ephesians was written to show the burden of prophecy was always the same, namely, to reveal the manifestation of the eternal purpose of God, the Church.
